Harry “Baauer” Rodrigues is best known as the man behind the “Harlem Shake” song. But the DJ, producer and audiophile is no one hit wonder. Baauer has been readying his debut album by traveling from his home base in New York City to the distant deserts of the United Arab Emirates, and to the volcanoes, temples and metropolises throughout Japan, in search of sounds that will inspire his new music and push him beyond the shadow of “Harlem Shake.”

After thousands of miles traveled and gigabytes of recordings collected, Baauer returns to the studio inspired, with a fresh collection of sounds, and a new direction for his debut album.

Comparing these new samples to new paint colors, Baauer encouraged more people to try the same, “There’s a whole new world of stuff to use, we just need to go out and interact with it.” Traveling the globe and recording everything was the easy part; the hard part was turning those raw materials into finished goods. “Basically, I have a load of little bits and pieces. The big job I have now is to bring them all together into one cohesive package. That’s where it at right now.”

Baauer’s endeavor also showcases the power music has to connect people, language barrier or not. Bauer explains further, “Even though we were strangers from a different part of the world they were happy to show us their old traditions.”
